Complete The Home Brewing Experience With The Kegerator In a listing of the most basic home brewing equipments, chances are you will not see the Kegerator. Well this should not come as a surprise since this equipment is not considered as a basic. For many connoisseurs, this draft beer system is for the advanced enthusiasts of home brewing. Home brewing was most popular in England during that era, largely because it's customary for feudal manors to make sure that beer is available for consumption for the lords and their subjects. In America, the most influential people who took up home brewing were George Washington and Thomas Jefferson. As a home brewer, it is important that you know the balance between a too hot and a too cold temperature. There is a right temperature for use in home brewing and this is dependent on the kind of yeast strain selected for the brew. By practice, the most common temperature used will register in between the 60s and the 70s. Stores that offer discount rates for bulk ingredients are common so don't forget to look for them in your area. If you encounter difficulties in this regard, the Internet is a reliable source to look for one. And of course, drinking beer won't be as enjoyable without drinking it from the bottle (at least in my case). The knowledge of brewing was passed on by the Egyptian to the Greeks and lastly to Romans, after that the long tradition of brewing had begun and preserve until this days. During medieval time monasteries are the common place of brewing. Monks brew not only for personal consumption but more so for trade (exchange of goods system). Any of these could do so long as they are guaranteed to have been made from food-grade materials. Any non food-grade siphoning tools will leach chemicals into the brewed beer passing through them, thereby contaminating the fermented solution. For better liquid control, use an external pinch clamp with your siphoning tube.
